What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This study utilizes a multi-omics approach to systematically characterize the cellular heterogeneity and spatial architecture of the hair follicle microenvironment in patients with androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Our primary aim is to elucidate the key mechanisms driving hair follicle stem cell (HFSC) exhaustion and to identify potential therapeutic targets. Investigators will collect six groups of scalp tissue samples, which include healthy controls and AGA patients (stratified into younger and older cohorts). By integrating spatial transcriptomics, single - cell sequencing data, investigators will map aberrant cell subpopulations and their complex interaction networks. Furthermore, the identified core targets will be functionally validated using patient-derived organoids and animal models. Expected outcomes include the identification of 3-5 critical cell subpopulations and the discovery o

📋 Eligibility rules (as published)
Inclusion Criteria: * Age and Gender: Males aged 25-30 or 60-65 years. * Diagnosis: Patient Group: Diagnosed by a physician with Hamilton-Norwood Stage III androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Healthy Control Group: Healthy scalp with no signs of hair loss. * Medication and Treatment History: No use of anti-hair loss medications (e.g., minoxidil, finasteride), hormonal drugs, or scalp chemical treatments (perm or dye) within the last 6 months. * Informed Consent: Voluntarily signed and provided written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Scalp Conditions: Presence of other types of alopecia (besides AGA) or active scalp diseases (e.g., psoriasis, dermatitis, infections). * Medical History: History of keloids or coagulation disorders. * Systemic Diseases: Major underlying conditions, including severe cardiovascular/cerebrovascular diseases, immune system disorders, or malignant tumors. * Allergies: Known hypersensitivity to local anesthetics. * Prior Clinical Trials: Participation in any other clinical trials within 3 months prior to screening. * Other Factors: Any other conditions deemed unsuitable for participation by the investigator.
